The Jerusalem Blueprint has an article about Jewish competitive eating asking why there are not more ranked Jewish competitive eaters. George Shea calls Crazy Legs Conti the only high ranked Jewish eater and Don Lerman is billed as the "Sandy Koufax of competitive eating". There is no mention of Dave "US Male" Goldstein.

Buzzsaw Magazine has an article about Don "Moses" Lerman, who says he has retired from competitive eating for good. His biggest regret about his competitive eating career is that he did not start it when he was younger. (via The Lerman Report)

The upcoming book Jewish Jocks (to be released October 30) will have a section about Don "Moses" Lerman (titled "The Ben Franklin of Competitive Eating") along with other Jewish sports figures like Sandy Koufax, Mark Spitz and Bobby Fischer. (via biographies615) update The New Republic has a section from the book about Arnold Rothstein, alleged fixer of the 1919 World Series.

Brian Seiken has uploaded "Gutbusters" to youtube: Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3. The 2002 Discovery Channel program documents the efforts of Ed "Cookie" Jarvis, Don "Moses" Lerman and "Krazy" Kevin Lipsitz to qualify for the Nathan's finals.
